position.
To remove the key manually, proceed
as follows:
stop the car in safety conditions,
engage a gear and the electric parking
brake;
using the provided key A
fig. 161 (located in the casing
containing the on-board documents),
undo the fixing screws B fig. 162 for the

Dealership to have the refitting procedure
carried out. If you would like to proceed
autonomously, special attention must be
paid to the correct coupling of the retaining
clips. Otherwise, noise might be heard due

WARNING
163)For versions with key without remote
control, before towing, turn the ignition key
to MAR and then to STOP without
removing it. The steering column will
automatically lock when the key is removed
and the wheels cannot be steered. Also
check that the gearbox is in neutral (on
versions equipped with automatic
transmission, check that the gear lever is in
N position). For versions with electronic
key, move the ignition device to MAR and
then to STOP, without opening the door.164)The brake servo and the
electromechanical power steering will not
work while the vehicle is being towed. You
will therefore need to apply more force on
the brake pedal and steering wheel. Do not
use flexible ropes when towing, and avoid
jerky movements. While towing, make sure
that the trailer hitch does not damage any
components it is touching. When towing
the car, you must comply with all specific
traffic regulations and adopt an appropriate
driving behaviour. Do not start the engine
while towing the vehicle. Before tightening
the ring, clean the threaded housing
thoroughly. Make sure that the ring is fully
screwed into the housing before towing the
car.
165)The front and rear tow hooks should
be used only for emergencies on the road.
You are allowed to tow the vehicle for short
distances using an appropriate device in
accordance with the highway code (a rigid
bar), to move the vehicle on the road in
readiness for towing or transport via a
breakdown vehicle. Tow hooks MUST NOT
be used to tow vehicles off the road or
where there are obstacles and/or for
towing operations using cables or other
non-rigid devices. In compliance with the
above conditions, towing must take place
with the two vehicles (one towing, the other
towed) aligned as much as possible along
the same centre line.

functions before setting off.
Read the instructions for the system
carefully before setting off.
192) 193)
RECEPTION CONDITIONS
Reception conditions change
constantly while driving. Reception may
be interfered with by the presence of
mountains, buildings or bridges,
especially when you are far away from
the broadcaster.
IMPORTANT The volume may be
increased when receiving traffic alerts
and news.
CARE AND
MAINTENANCE
Observe the following precautions to
ensure the system is fully operational:
the display lens should not come into
contact with pointed or rigid objects
which could damage its surface; use a
soft, dry anti-static cloth to clean and
do not press.
never use alcohol, petrols and
derivatives to clean the display lens.
prevent any liquid from entering the

repair.
102) 103)
MULTIMEDIA DEVICES
IMPORTANT Some multimedia players
may not be compatible with the
Uconnect™.
Only use devices (e.g. USB flash drives)
from safe sources on the car. Devices
from unknown sources could contain
software infected by viruses which, if
installed on the car, could increase the
vulnerability of the car's electric/
electronic systems to hacking.
ANTITHEFT PROTECTION
The system is equipped with an
anti-theft protection system based on
the exchange of information with the
electronic control unit (Body Computer)
on the vehicle.
This guarantees maximum safety and
prevents the secret code from being
entered after the power supply has
been disconnected.
If the check has a positive outcome, the
system will start to operate, whereas if
the comparison codes are not the same
or if the electronic control unit (Body
Computer) is replaced, the system will
ask the user to enter the secret codeaccording to the procedure described
in the paragraph below.
Entering the secret code
When the system is switched on, if the
code is requested, the display will show
"Please enter Anti-Theft Code" followed
by the screen showing a keypad to
enter the secret code.
The secret code is made up of four
digits, from 0 to 9: to insert the code,
turn the "BROWSE ENTER" right knob
and press to confirm.
After inserting the fourth digit, move the
cursor to "OK" and press the
"BROWSE ENTER" right knob: the
system will start to operate.
If an incorrect code is entered, the
system displays "Incorrect Code" to
notify the user of the need to enter the
correct code.
After the 3 available attempts to enter
the code, the system displays
"Incorrect Code. Radio locked. Wait for
30 minutes". After the text has
disappeared it is possible to start the
code entering procedure again.
Vehicle radio passport
This document certifies ownership of
the system. The vehicle radio passport
shows the system model, serial number
and secret code.

USB SOURCE
To activate USB mode, plug a
compatible device into the USB port on
the central tunnelfig. 191 or, where
provided, into the USB port on the back
of the central console fig. 192.
IMPORTANT After using a USB
recharging socket, we recommend
disconnecting the device (smartphone),
always removing the cable from the
vehicle socket first, never from the
device (example infig. 191 ). Cables left
flying or connected incorrectly could
compromise correct recharging and/or
the USB socket condition.
TheUconnect™system may not
support some USB keys: in this case, it
may not automatically switch from
“Radio” mode to “Media” mode.
If the device used does not play, verify
its compatibility by selecting Media
mode: a dedicated message will appear
on theUconnect™system display.
NOTE The USB ports handle data
transmission from the Pen
Drive/Smartphone, etc. and slow
recharging of an external device, which
is not guaranteed as it depends on the
device type/brand.
USB charging port
(where provided)
Some versions have a USB charging
port on the central tunnel fig. 193.
When a USB device is inserted with the
radio on, it starts to play the tracks on
the device if the “AutoPlay” is set to
"ON" in the “Audio” menu.

Adjust the volume using the
button/knob on the front panel
or using the volume adjustment control
on the connected device.
The "AUX Volume Offset" function can
be selected in “Audio” settings only
when the AUX source is active.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The functions of the device connected
with the AUX socket are directly
managed by the device itself: it is not
possible to change track/folder/playlist

parameters:
Acceleration
Deceleration
Transmission
Speed
Display of the eco:Drive™
Press theeco:Drive™button to
interact with the function. A screen will
be displayed showing the 4 indices
described above.
These indices are grey until the system
has enough data to evaluate the driving
style. Once sufficient data are available,
the indices will have 5 colours
depending on the evaluation: dark
green (very good), light green, yellow,
orange and red (very bad).
In the event of extended inactivity the
display will show the average of the
indices up to that moment (“Average
index”) then the indices will be coloured
again in real time as soon as the car is
restarted.
Recording and transferring trip data
The trip data can be stored in the
system memory and transferred
through a properly configured USB
memory stick or by theUconnect™LIVE App. This allows you
to display the history of the collected
data, showing the complete analysis of
the trip data and of your driving style.
For further information visit the
www.driveuconnect.eu website
IMPORTANT Do not remove the USB
memory stick nor unpair the
smartphone and theUconnect™LIVE
App before the system has
downloaded the data, since these
could be lost. During the transfer of
data to the devices,Uconnect™
messages may appear on the display
to guide the user correctly through the
operation; follow these instructions.
These messages are only displayed
with the ignition device at STOP and
when a delay in theUconnect™
system switching off is set. The data
are automatically transferred to the
devices when the engine is switched
off. Transferred data will be deleted
from the system memory in this
manner. You can choose to store the
trip data or not, by pressing the
"Settings" button and by setting the
storage activation and the transfer
mode (USB or Cloud), as required.
When the USB memory stick is full, the
dedicated messages are shown on the
Uconnect™system display.
When theeco:Drive™data have notbeen transferred to the USB key for a
while, theUconnect™system internal
memory could become saturated: in
this case, follow the recommendations
provided by the messages on the
display.
